There are *maybe* 5 Sam/Pete shippers in the fandom - whoever bought this prop to sell I suspect was disappointed.
Edit: Hehe I just noticed it only cost $250! So not a real rock then?Sam and Jack... Still the best romance on TV in years!

Sam's life takes a turn in an unexpected direction when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy. The decision to keep the baby and raise it on her own will alter her life forever. Relationships are put to the test, especially the one between her and Jack. She doesn't know what to expect from him and he surprises her at every turn.

My S/J fics can be found on FFnet and AO3. I also tweet and tumble about the ship and my writing/stories.

Or a white-gold band, I'm good with that too.Unmade Plans (WIP: 11/20):

perhaps I'm in the minority, but I much prefer yellow gold. It suits my skin tone much better than platinum, white gold, or silver. I even gave my platinum set (earrings, necklace, and bracelet) to my daughter. White metals look much better on her. I think the choice of the metal should be based on what looks good on the wearer, regardless of other considerations.sigpic

The white gold looks a lot more understated, classier.sigpichttps://www.fanfiction.net/s/7450657...-World-Goes-On Sparky story SGA https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10177037/1/Bad-Moon-Rising Teen Wolf fanfic story https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10573271/1/Skyfall Thor fanfic story

I have never liked yellow gold. I chose a white gold band with 1carat of diamonds set in it so I wouldn't scratch myself or snag clothing.
Marriage didn't exactly work out so if anyone wants to buy it...
But really I think silver tone jewellery looks good on anyone. Yellow only on people with a darker skin tone.The password is fishing...
